On the list I've seen The Red's, Frecci Tricollori and Patroule de France, so the Red's get my vote though I was really impressed by the italians  8)

I'd love to see the Blue Angels, Thunderbirds and Blue Impulse however I don't see it happening any time soon and I really doubt I'll ever be in Japan  ::)

Craig  8)

Think I was wrong about the Luftwaffe F-104s though. More likely the Vikings, the German Navy team. http://www.fly-navy.de/vikings/vikings.html
My memory's a tad hazy after all this time but I'm sure there were 4 of them. Maybe one of the final displays they mention.


I ceratianly remember the photos in the mid 80s of a German Navy Starfighter pair - may just have been a component of a larger formation...


These chaps are pretty good too... ;D

Gotta love the Blue Angels, but I do love those Reds though.  However, the Strizhi are crazy good.   damn crap, now I'm confused.

As for my favorite demonstration team, I voted for the Blue Angels, partly because i've met the pilots and crew 8)
